This change adds missing Gecko localizations (from Mozilla's `firefox-l10n` repo) - these are used for ex. `about:` pages, such as `about:about`, `about:config`, etc.
This also adds support for localizing our own IronFox-specific `about:` pages

Notably, this sets our own rustup directory, switches us to using the "minimal" rustup profile, and enables some extra performance optimizations
This also removes an unnecessary `gradle.properties` file, so that users can instead configure Gradle in its entirety via the `IRONFOX_GRADLE_FLAGS` env variable

These changes make it significantly easier (and more organized) to manage environment variables, will help avoid conflicts with variables set/used elsewhere, and it also prevents `prebuild.sh` from hardcoding some of them - so that users can change certain environment variables without needing to re-run the entire `prebuild.sh` script
This also sets our mozconfig files to use these new environment variables directly

This should provide a superior experience and will help prevent ex. future issues if we change the values to be more complex

## Important
We are currently unable to provide updates to IronFox on **Accrescent**, [due to ongoing client and server issues that Accrescent is facing](https://infosec.exchange/@accrescent/115408303090609483). This impacts **all** apps on Accrescent, and is not just limited to IronFox.
**For the time being, we would highly recommend Accrescent users use our `Nightly` CI builds**. As we now use a separate package ID for these builds, it is possible to install Nightly builds *alongside* your existing, standard install of IronFox. This ensures that you can continue to receive the latest security updates and fixes from us, without losing any existing data. **Once updates resume on Accrescent, you can *(and **should**)* simply switch back to your existing standard install.**
Please see [here](https://gitlab.com/ironfox-oss/IronFox/-/blob/dev/docs/FAQ.md#how-can-i-download-nightly-builds) for details on how to install our `Nightly` builds.
## Changes
- [Enabled the display of certain advanced options](bb47aee7e6) at [`about:support`](about:support).
- [Implemented support to block/filter unwanted Remote Settings collections on the Application Services level](33373ec291), similar to [the current Remote Settings Blocker patch](e6c69ef28d/patches/gecko-rs-blocker.patch) *(derived from LibreWolf)* for Gecko. This is necessary due to this Remote Settings instance being separate from Gecko's instance.
- Replaced the `Enable WebGL` settings toggle with a **`Disable WebGL`** toggle that disables WebGL instead, to improve clarity and help avoid confusion.
- Updated to Firefox [`144.0.1`](https://firefox.com/firefox/android/144.0.1/releasenotes/).
- [Other minor tweaks and adjustments](https://gitlab.com/ironfox-oss/IronFox/-/merge_requests/94/diffs).

## Changes
- [Added a separate toggle in settings to enable/disable JIT for **extensions**](48a42e213a) when JIT is otherwise disabled globally *(**Disabled** by default)*, located at `Settings` -> `IronFox` -> `IronFox settings` -> `Security` -> **`Enable JavaScript Just-in-time Compilation (JIT) for extensions`**.
- [Added support for natively enabling/disabling WebGL per-site](5e1acb19a6) via FPP overrides. **It is now recommended to disable the uBlock Origin `Block WebGL` lists** *(The `Block WebGL` lists will be removed from the uBlock Origin config entirely in the near future, but we're keeping them for now to ex. give users time to update)*. See [Notes](#notes) below for details, such as how you can manually allow desired websites to use WebGL.
- [Added a toggle in settings to enable or disable our default WebGL overrides](c9298799ee) *(**Enabled** by default)*, located at `Settings` -> `IronFox` -> `IronFox settings` -> `Privacy` -> **`Enable WebGL overrides from IronFox`**. When WebGL is enabled, this setting enables WebGL by default for certain websites, to reduce breakage/unexpected behavior. Note that this list is **NOT** fetched/updated remotely.
- [Added a toggle in settings to enable or disable spoofing the timezone to `UTC-0`](c8cb5064e4) *(**Disabled** by default)*, located at `Settings` -> `IronFox` -> `IronFox settings` -> `Privacy` -> **`Spoof timezone to UTC-0`**.
- [Added a toggle in settings to enable or disable our default timezone overrides](c8cb5064e4) *(**Enabled** by default)*, located at `Settings` -> `IronFox` -> `IronFox settings` -> `Privacy` -> **`Enable timezone spoofing overrides from IronFox`**. When timezone spoofing is enabled, this setting disables timezone spoofing by default for certain websites, to reduce breakage/unexpected behavior. Note that this list is **NOT** fetched/updated remotely.
- [Added a toggle in settings to enable or disable *Mozilla's* default fingerprinting protection overrides](64e3706be8) to reduce website breakage *(**Enabled** by default)*, located at `Settings` -> `IronFox` -> `IronFox settings` -> `Privacy` -> **`Enable fingerprinting protection overrides from Mozilla`**. Note that this list **IS** fetched/updated remotely.
- [Added a toggle in settings to enable or disable *our* default fingerprinting protection overrides](64e3706be8) to reduce website breakage *(**Enabled** by default)*, located at `Settings` -> `IronFox` -> `IronFox settings` -> `Privacy` -> **`Enable fingerprinting protection overrides from IronFox`**. This toggle does **not** disable fingerprinting protection overrides that we set to **harden** protection for certain websites. Note that this list is **NOT** fetched/updated remotely.
- [Implemented](522770b2dc) [Phoenix's extension blocklist](https://codeberg.org/celenity/Phoenix/src/branch/pages/build/policies/blocklist.json) to block malicious/phishing/sketchy extensions.
- [Locked Gecko preferences controlled by UI settings](bc9df5c52c) *(See [details](https://gitlab.com/ironfox-oss/IronFox/-/blob/dev/docs/FAQ.md#why-are-certain-preferences-locked))*.
- [Prevented the JIT toggle from controlling `javascript.options.main_process_disable_jit`](8171a4da48), as this pref is not required for JIT to function, and is preferable to leave on - even when JIT is enabled, to improve security.
- Updated to Firefox [`144.0`](https://firefox.com/firefox/android/144.0/releasenotes/).
- Updated microG to [`v0.3.10.250932`](https://github.com/microg/GmsCore/releases/tag/v0.3.10.250932).
- Updated Phoenix to [`2025.10.12.1`](https://codeberg.org/celenity/Phoenix/releases/tag/2025.10.12.1).
- [Other minor tweaks, adjustments, and enhancements](https://gitlab.com/ironfox-oss/IronFox/-/merge_requests/92/diffs).
## Notes
You can manually allow websites to use WebGL with the `privacy.fingerprintingProtection.granularOverrides` preference at `about:config`. For instance, if I want to allow **`example.com`** to use WebGL, I would set the value of `privacy.fingerprintingProtection.granularOverrides` to:
```sh
[{"firstPartyDomain":"example.com","overrides":"-DisableWebGL"}]
```
If I *also* wanted to allow `example2.com`, I'd set the value to:
```sh
[{"firstPartyDomain":"example.com","overrides":"-DisableWebGL"},{"firstPartyDomain":"example2.com","overrides":"-DisableWebGL"}]
```
**[Please report websites that require WebGL to us if possible](https://gitlab.com/ironfox-oss/IronFox/-/issues)**, so that we can investigate and potentially add them to the default WebGL overrides list.

We already clone Glean directly, and since we publish Glean to Graven local immediately, AFAICT we don't use or need the AS Glean - no reason to clone it twice
Signed-off-by: celenity <celenity@celenity.dev>
Particularly, we now no-op the Crash Reporter's initialization/install method directly from Android Components, and we no-op Glean's main initialization method in Fenix (from `GleanHelper`)
This heavily reduces the complexity of our patches/maintenance costs - ex. now `Analytics.kt` (and other components) effectively do nothing, so we no longer have to patch them out
Signed-off-by: celenity <celenity@celenity.dev>
We don't use these at all, so it doesn't make sense to build them (Mozilla also doesn't build most of these for reference) - this appears to heavily speed up the build process, and also helps to minimizes patches
Signed-off-by: celenity <celenity@celenity.dev>
This should now make it a lot clearer what certain patches do, which part of the code they're targetting, etc. This should also allow for easier rebasing.
